Meet Your Host

L. Marcus Williams studied cinema at Brooklyn College in New York, where he earned a dual degree in Film Production and Psychology. His thesis film, Lifeline, received multiple accolades, including a grant from the National Board of Review. (You can watch it here.)

The following five films made him the cinephile he is today:

• King Kong (Cooper & Schoedsack, 1933)
• A Clockwork Orange (Kubrick, 1971)
• La Dolce Vita (Fellini, 1960)
• The Passion of Joan of Arc (Dreyer, 1928)
• Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles (Akerman, 1975)

Marcus lives in California with his wife, three children, and an ever-growing collection of physical media. When he is not watching or discussing films, he is almost certainly thinking about them.
